Jeff,
I know you are probably catching up on all your e-mail and links regarding the Frisch disaster, but did you see my post about it at the Houston Chron? Deb showed up.
And Mary Katherine Ham has an excellent article over at townhall, not about the incident exactly (although it is mentioned) but how the left treats dissenters. You and I are both mentioned.
RWS, that is a great piece. The closing line says it all.
Godspeed all ye Zoomies, flying and fallen.
I didn’t but I just checked it out, thanks. I’m still not getting all my email.
Minor quibble: I was never a professor. I was an adjunct. We didn’t have TAs where I taught; instead, outside of a pair or required courses we gave every year, we were able to create our own lit courses and honors seminars.
I think I messed up on the link to Townhall.
Here it is.
We had quite a few people from the ILARNG serve in Noble Eagle. I will have to wait for the Operation Enduring Freedom gatherings, however.
Maj John:
If you can pass the word through the ILARNG and the ILANG about this event it would be much appreciated. And anybody else you can think of. Thank you
Appropos of nothing, I was just in the Museum of Flight in Seattle, and in the WW I exhibit they have a nice placard comparing the performance characteristics of a Sopwith Camel and an F-22.
The Raptor’s a lot faster.
